@cms2533 I was talking about the Fair Tax. And if you are talking the same, you are close, but just a little over. You do know that with the Fair Tax. The IRS would be eliminated, the 16 amendment would be repealed and you would get 100% of your pay check. Right? That should give you enough to pay that gas tax, for sure. Plus you would get a prebate up to the poverty level. A better way. The Fair Tax. Search for it.
@bbtjerky - why dont you look at the taxes per gallon. I guarentee that you'll see almost $1 per gallon in taxes. In some states like PA, NY and now MD they are talking about adding another $.10 per gallon. For every tank of gas we pay $15-20 in taxes. Hows that sound?
It must be easy to talk about eliminating "entitlements" and health care for your constituents when your family has millions of tax-sheltered dollars in the bank. Big business and their lobbyists have already destroyed the middle class that made America and our economy great. Now your oil buddies are transferring what's left of working families' resources to the rich while my customers are supposed to support my business when they're working $9-10 jobs with no benefits. Who's kidding who?
I say shut the government down. Reagan did it several times. Put the federal government on a four day work week for everyone but essential services. How much could we save that way? Of course that would mean you guys go to an HOURLY wage instead of the fat salaries you get now, but if we can do it, why shouldn't Capitol Hill?
I see quite a bit here about oil. Why do so many demand that we as a nation not use our natural resources? If we go get our oil we are less dependent on opec. That is a good thing. As far as taxes. Congressman Rob Woodall of GA is taking the lead on enacting the Fair Tax. Before commenting on the Fair Tax please educate yourself. Do not just claim what you hear from politicians to be be fact. The Fair Tax would be the largest transfer of power from gov. to the people since our nation was born.
